Glasses lens monomer refers to the materials used to make glasses lenses, mainly including glass, resin and PC.

The main raw material of glass lenses is optical glass, which has excellent optical properties, good light transmittance and mechanical and chemical properties, constant refractive index, and stable physical and chemical properties. Glass lenses have high surface hardness and are more resistant to wear and tear. However, due to their heavy weight and fragility, fewer and fewer glass lenses are used in recent years.

Resin is a hydrocarbon (hydrocarbon) secretion from plants, especially coniferous plants, and is valued for its other special chemical structures. Resin can be divided into two types: natural resin and synthetic resin. Resin lenses are lenses that are chemically synthesized using resin as raw material and processed and polished. Resin lenses are light in weight and more comfortable to wear; they have strong impact resistance, are not fragile and are safer; they also have good light transmittance; they are easy to reprocess and can meet special needs; coupled with the innovation and improvement of the coating process, resin lenses also have good Excellent wear resistance, it has become the mainstream lens on the market.

In addition, there are some special lens materials, such as photochromic lens materials, materials that can change color according to different changes in light. This material is usually composed of two different optical materials. When light enters, due to the different refractive index of the two materials, the light is scattered and reflected, thus changing the color of the lens.
